March 10, 1913: Harriet Tubman Dies
“I was conductor of the Underground Railroad for eight years, and I can say what most conductors can’t say – I never ran my train off the track and I never lost a passenger.” – Harriet Tubman
The underground railroad was a lifeline for slaves escaping to freedom, and Harriet Tubman was undoubtedly one of its most famous “conductors.”
One hundred years since her passing (March 10, 1913), we invite you to revisit the life and legacy of Harriet Tubman.
